    The State of the Environment in Lacombe County Lacombe County would like to acknowledge the contributions of the following people in preparing this report on the state of the environment in Lacombe County. Blayne West, Lacombe County Senior Management Team, Lacombe County Planning Team, Larry Riep, Barry Cole, Doug Neis, Sarah Skinner, Jay White, Donna Hennig, Michael Kartusch.

Paper copies: Please contact Lacombe County directly at 403-782-6601 First printing April 2013 Page. 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A State of the Environment Report is an important tool for Lacombe County. It provides a snapshot of the current condition of the environment and the pressures that impact it. This document examines the state of the environment in Lacombe County through a scientific and socio-economic planning structure. The scientific approach focuses on analysing available data to identify and assess changes in the environment over time. The planning approach uses social norms to compare and rank alternative choices, to balance environmental, economic and social objectives, and to initiate management options. The report outlines community perception, scientific data, current environmental legislation and environmental extension programs. It is a compilation of information gathered from various sources and provides us with a baseline. It does not include management recommendations or future planning considerations. This document is a snapshot in time; it represents only the data that is available at the time of writing. Lacombe County is located in Central Alberta, straddling six towns and villages and bordering five counties.
